I always had a nervous habit of talking too much; What should I tell others about myself and what was meant to be kept to myself never quite made sense to me. I want to have clear communication with any and all who interacted with me but it left me with no one to converse with. Was I a problem I and others couldn’t resolve or was I simply a textbook others didn’t wish to read at all? Have my words slowly started to mean nothing to myself as well, is that why I can no longer hear my voice in my own thoughts? It's as though I have drowned out the girl who wanted to understand and experience all and have decorated her corpse with someone so incompetent of meaning or purpose. Maybe being happier has taught me I don’t need to overthink… No, I am simply unable to have a solid thought without starving my brain of needed and well deserved sleep. Sometimes I miss the intense beauty things had when I was unhappy.
